[Insight-users] Re: ellipse detection

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Radomir,


You may want to consider the following two options


A) Modify the classes for Circle Hough Transform
    in order to extend them for Ellipses


B) Use Model to Image registration, with an
    EllipseSpatialObject as a model.



Option (A) is better for the case where you
expect any number of ellipses anywhere in the image

Option (B) is better when you have some idea of
where in the image you can expect the ellipses to
be, and you have a rough estimation of their
parameters.

For both cases, you will find information on the
ITK Software Guide

    Regards,



        Luis
